RHU witnessed a highly exciting Physics Day organized by RHU Physics and Astronomy Club on April 10, 2019. It included numerous activities all prepared by RHu students and their advisor Dr. Houssam Salami for the sole purpose of the love of physics. From a presentation about “Interstellar Adventure through Space time," to Physics experiments and educational games in the open green areas, to live streaming of the first ever black hole image, and to a football game between the Physics and Astronomy Club and RHU Dorms residents. The event culminated with a star gazing experience where students enjoyed the high quality image of the moon seen via the telescope.

The presentation was delivered by RHU students beginning with Oussama Matar who gave a brief introduction about stars. Then Tarek Arabi invited everyone to a trip inside the blackhole while Youssef Shehadeh discussed time travel possibility mentioning wormholes and special and general relativities. Then Riwa Matar presented to the audience the latest results about the shape of the universe, which can be considered as empty! Finally Elio Eid presented the String Theory and mentioned the ultimate goal of every physicist which is to unify the four fundamental forces in what is called the Theory of Everything. The students along with their advisor then interacted remarkably for about 15 minutes with the audience.

Following the presentation physics experiments were conducted in the green area from 12:30 to 5 p.m. to include experiments on Faraday's Law, Van de Graaff Generator, Chladini Plates, Equilibrium, Gyroscope, Thermal Generator, Plasma ball, Non Newtonian Fluid, etc., in addition to educational games.

A pizza sale extended from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. to be followed by the live streaming of the first ever black hole image, which is 500 million trillion km away and was photographed by a network of eight telescopes across the world, at 4:00 pm. Then a football game between Physics and Astronomy Club and RHU Dorms residents followed. The event ended with a thrilling star gazing activity where students enjoyed the high quality image of the moon seen via the telescope.
